Worse every update – 1Weather: Forecast and Radar Review

This app has only gotten worse since I originally bought it about a year ago. It has become harder to read, less intuitive, slower, and more buggy every time it is updated. The current radar is unusable on an iPhone 7. It just doesn’t bother loading or playing. It sits there with 1/10th of the first frame of the map loaded and that’s it. The hourly forecast, if it loads, is more clicks away than it has ever been. All information is in its own oversized container which forces scrolling to the left and right just to see the days’ weather. So trying to get the hourly rain forecast for the afternoon requires clicking “forecast,” then “hourly,” then scrolling down, then scrolling right! That’s 5 clicks away from my phone’s Home Screen just to find out if it’s going to rain this afternoon. All the little rain icons and “xx%” icons in the world don’t tell me whether the rains starts in the morning or at 11pm. It matters. A lot. The app gets worse every time they update it and I’m giving up. I just assume the original owners sold it off and no longer care about producing a slick weather app. It gets 2 stars because, when it does work, it seems to be more accurate than my wife’s app.
